The capitol board at Austin are
said to be much puzzled over the ar
chitecture of the dome of the new ca.
itol. The famous New York archi-
tect who was telegraphed for, not
being able to come, he has been asked
to name three or four competent
architects who can advise the board.
The Texas capitol is no small or ordi-
nary building, and that the men
managing its construction should be
puzzled in completing the dome is not
surprising. Such buildings require
the attention of the most skilled and
experienced men in the country, and
that. it seems, they havenot had all tie
time.

WE'LL does this section remember
when at the time of the state con-
vention last year the nomination of
Dick Hall was hailed as the beginning
of better times, and the end OF Walsh
and Walsh methods. Behold, Hall

western man to be the VESTS worst

He administers the law as II is given
to him, without favoritlsm to any.
The Pioneer tacitly admits what was
suspected at the time of Mr.. Walsh's
defeat that the ranch men VII were
strongly represented at the conven-

speak as one of the poor settlers, but
its assault on r. w. Halls administra-
ton, coupled with its deuunciation OF
Walsh gives it away. 1t is a ranch

The Pilot Point New Era does not
agree with the Pioneer of Tocossa, in
accusing the State administration of
standing by the ranchmen and the
New Era is right. Had the Land
Commissioner and Governor been
standing by" the ranchmen, there
would have been no complaint from
the Pioneer of Tocossa. The New
Era says:

The Wills Point Rural News has
correct ideas on most points, but it
gets off decidedly wrong in the fol-
lowing:
While the papers who are demand
ing the repeal of certain laws, VIII,
don't they turn their attention to the
law which pays members of gress
$4l6.66 Z a month for doing nothing
during recess of congress
The congressman who is faithful TO
duty, is not guilty of "doing nothing
during recess" He Is very often EN-
ployed at Washington on committee
work, or if at home, is busy attending
to correspondence about post-otficc
and post-route matters, ETC., and pre-
pairing himself for the busy session.
The amount named ($5OOO per annum)
may sound very large to some; but
our best men whom we want to send
to congress could earn that or more G.
their profession, and certainly should
not be expected to serve the public
where expenses of living are SO much
higher, for less money than they can
earn at home? Low salaries give the
government inferior men who do
much damage and little good.
